Problems sleeping at night?

2172331280 82f4f8bd8d m Problems sleeping at night?I am seriously tempted to purchase a gaff over in Egypt after my recent holiday, purely for the sublime diving and winter temperatures. Obviously it helps that property prices are cheap as chips and that Easyjet are due to start flying to Hurghada in the coming months.

I’m not planning on a villa or a massive 4 bedroom appartment, after all with Merchants reductions in commissions, who can afford that ;) I am after something cheap and simple that I can use to store all my diving equipment and use it as a crash pad. Having already identified one, I guess I will be setting the ball rolling in the next 2 weeks or so.

If you’ve never been to Egypt, I really can’t recommend it enough. A week on the Nile followed by a week in Cairo, El Gouna or Hurghada depending on what you’re after, is the perfect combination. If you want to see what I mean, or have problems sleeping, then feel free to take a look at my 269 holiday snaps :)

    That looks like a cool trip Frostie. I’ve been up in a hot air balloon locally and that was awesome but the scenery in Egypt looks unbeatable. As for the submarine pics, you are MAD (for it), nice one.

    I’m with you Frostie. I went for a week or so and did the Nile hotspots (Cairo, Aswan, Luxor and Abu Simbel). The sights were unreal and the experience unforgettable.

    I’ve heard the diving is good, so I’ll explore the coastal bits once you’ve sorted out a pad ;)

    Excellent idea Chris I spent a month in Egypt in my young free and single days fantastic place.

    Your new pad could be the venue for a UK Egyptian g2g :)

    Indeed it does :S

    Mind you, with Kirsty off to Oz I guess I can just arrange a house swap for a few weeks. I will have a word with Matt and see if we can arrange for the Expo to take place at my gaff. It maybe a little cramped tho :D
